Heads up! Our parent watchdogs have scanned the upcoming agenda for Tallmadge City. We found 4 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
| 🚨 HIGH CONCERN (LEVEL 8) |
|
New Truancy Policy Creates Student Surveillance System
The board is voting on a first reading of new attendance policies (JED, JEDA) that implement a “tiered system of supports” and an “absence intervention team.” This is the framework for a Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS), which tracks “chronic absenteeism” to justify interventions that can violate family privacy and parental authority.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM: This is a first reading, we can stop it. Call Board President Mark Fairhurst at (330) 633-3291 and tell him: ‘Vote NO on the proposed attendance policies JED and JEDA. Parents will address attendance; we do not need a district surveillance system to intervene in our families.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Family Privacy

| ⚠️ NEEDS REVIEW (LEVEL 6) |

Contract for In-Home Student Healthcare Services
The district is contracting with Maxim Healthcare to provide supplemental nursing and other health services. The contract explicitly allows for these services to be provided “in-home,” potentially without a parent present, blurring the line between school and home.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Call Superintendent Steven Wood’s office via the district line at (330) 633-3291: ‘Regarding the Maxim Healthcare contract (Item 3.2), what specific parental consent is required before a contractor performs services in a student’s home? We need a clear policy protecting parental oversight.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Your Child’s Privacy

Teacher Contract Creates Path for Ideological Training
The new teacher contract creates five “Instructional Practice Days” and a “Professional Development Committee.” These structures can be used to introduce controversial ideologies into the district under the guise of teacher training, bypassing public curriculum review.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact Superintendent Steven Wood via the district office at (330) 633-3291: ‘Regarding the new TTA agreement (Item 4.2), I demand that all materials for “Instructional Practice Days” and Professional Development Committee meetings be made publicly available for parental review 30 days in advance.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Teacher Training Agendas

| ALERT (LEVEL 4) |

New District-Wide Financial Data Analytics Platform
The board is approving a contract with Frontline Education for a “Financial Planning Analytics” system. This creates a new data pipeline, giving a large national vendor access to district data, which could be expanded in the future to include sensitive student information.
Recommended Action Plan
OPT-OUT ALERT: Contact Treasurer Jeffery Hostetler via the district office at (330) 633-3291: ‘Regarding Item 3.3, what specific student data, if any, will be shared with Frontline Education under this agreement? Please confirm in writing that this platform will be used for financial data only and will not be expanded to student SEL or behavioral tracking.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: $11,600/yr + $1,890 setup
